Day trips from Macon or Lyon

Any suggestions for places to see?

Main point of base is Cuisery France

Thanks

I can’t compare it against anywhere else locally, but we had an overnight stay in St Gengoux le national which was a pleasant large village / small town, with a good walk nearby. Hardly a tourist hotspot, but perhaps worth considering if you’d just like somewhere relaxing and representative of the region.

For food, I will recommend Le Coq et le Rose in Julienas. The lady who ran the front of house seemingly directing the staff by the merest twitch of the eyebrow - very impressive. The food good, as was the wine.
